I have a 40G deskstar on my cube and a 40G travelstar on my Ti-book. I purchased both from OWC--the deskstar in 2001 and the travelstar last summer. Both cracked up in the first 3-4 days. The TiBook drive in particular made unbelievably horrible, grating sounds. Shipped them both back to OWC and got replacements immediately. Both replacements work fine. They are really, really quiet. I have no idea how they compare with other drives however. Sounds like the class action suit might be based in fact, but I can't see any breach of warranty nor can I figure out what the measure of damages would be. My drive crash cost me a ton of time, but only because of other compounding matters. --
